General Information:

If you are considering plastic surgery or non surgical solutions, choosing you plastic
surgeon or cosmetic doctor can be one of the most difficult but important tasks.
It is vital that you do your research fully before making a decision on who to see.
Your practitioners should be trained and registered with the General Medical Council.
If you are considering plastic surgery or cosmetic surgery then the surgeon should
be on the specialist register of the GMC and should have completed training as a
plastic surgeon.

The best skin care which you can provide is to protect your skin by ensuring that
you have a healthy diet, take regular moderate exercise, do not smoke and take alcohol
only in moderation. Sun exposure is one of the most damaging factors leading to premature
ageing of the skin and even skin cancers. Skincare (PRESCRIBEDsolutions) products
are available which can help to slow the appearance of the natural ageing process.
Your doctor will be able to advise on the most suitable treatments for your particular
type of skin.

There are some treatments which can help to alleviate and improve the appearance
of the signs of skin damage. The most popular of the non surgical solutions include:

Skin Peels (Chemical Peels) – the appearance of the skin can be affected by the accumulation
of the dead surface layers leading to clogging of pores and poor complexion. Skin
peels can improve the skins appearance by removing the thick dead layers on the skins
surface. This removes the signs of sun damage – including irregularity of the pigmentation
in the skin.

Dermal Fillers such as Restylane are very effective methods of reducing the appearance
of facial lines and wrinkles.

Facial volumisers such as Sculptra can help to replace the loss of volume which generally
occurs as we age causing a loss of cheek structure and the drooping of the mid and
lower face leading to sagging skin in the jaw line area.

Medical microdermabrasion. Microdermabrasion uses fine crystals drawn over the surface
of the face at high speed to remove the dead, dull top layers of the skin revealing
the fresh, bright, smoother appearance often seen in younger skin.

Thread vein removal – facial and leg thread veins are very common. Thread veins appear
as we age due to thinning and damage to the tiny blood vessels in the skin which
break and become exposed. They can be made worse by excess alcohol, smoking, sun
exposure and hormonal changes, particularly in women. Thread veins are also found
on the legs which are unsightly, although not a cause for concern. A number of treatments
are available to treat and remove these abnormal vessels including sclerotherapy,
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) and laser.

Varicose veins - Varicose veins on the legs can be unsightly and cause much embarrassment
to sufferers, however many patients also experience symptoms including aching, throbbing
and even pain. Varicose veins are caused by valves which become incompetent and leak
causing a back pressure down the leg. Over time this causes the veins to become varicose
- dilating and becoming much larger, visible and eventually large enough to touch.
Treatment of varicose veins can be carried out using old traditional methods such
as stripping and avulsion (pulling the veins out) or by more modern and less uncomfortable
techniques such as Foam Sclerotherapy (injection) or if more extensive by a technique
called Endovenous Laser Ablation (EVLA) also known as Endovenous Laser Therapy (EVLT)
involving a fine fibre being passed into the vein and then, using a laser to seal
the abnormal veins.

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) systems can be used for the treatment of a number of other
conditions associated with the skin including vascular lesions, pigmented lesions,
skin rejuvenation, rosacea, acne and acne scarring.

Fractional Resurfacing (Active Fx, Pixel, Fraxel, SmartXide) use various methods
to deliver a fine pattern of laser beam dots to the skin. SmartXide resurfacing improves
the quality of the skin decreasing fine lines and wrinkles, smoothing the skin surface,
skin tightening and removing irregular pigmentation and small thread veins which
are often seen in sun damaged skin. We offer SmartXide DOT fractional skin resurfacing
and Active Fx. These are revolutionary new treatments reducing downtime and improving
results. SmartXide resurfacing produces results comparable to traditional carbon
dioxide resurfacing techniques.

The use of bacterial toxins to produce chemical denervation and muscle relaxation
is one of the most effective and probably the most popular non surgical treatments
for improving line and wrinkles around the eye, brow and the area between the eyes.

Skin Surgery - Many people have problems with their skin which cause concern or cause
problems, for example skin tags, cysts and moles. These can catch on clothing or
irritate. Many patients request removal of such lesions for non-cosmetic reasons.
These can be removed under local anaesthetic with minor discomfort, usually with
good cosmetic results and minimal scarring being visible. Mole removal can also be
carried out if they show suspicious features or if there is any doubt about their
innocence.

Cosmetic Surgery for Women – Women account for more than 80% of all cosmetic surgery
procedures and the most popular procedures of all involve breast surgery (including
breast reduction and breast augmentation). Other popular surgical treatments include:
eye bag removal (bleharoplasty), face lifts, neck lifts. Liposuction and tummy tucks
(abdominoplasty).

Cosmetic Surgery for Men - Men are now becoming much more aware of what cosmetic
surgery has to offer in terms of how men look and how they feel about themselves.
Popular procedures for men include: brow lifts, nose reshaping, liposuction, eye
bag removal surgery, neck lifts, face lifts, tummy tucks and male chest reduction.

Acne and Acne Scarring: Acne and acne scarring can be severe life limiting conditions.
There are a number of treatments available at Beaufort Clinic for the treatment of
acne (active acne) and acne scarring. We can guide you as to the best treatments
to suit your individual skin and types of symptoms you have. If you are 18 or 55,
if you suffer from acne or acne scarring then we can help to relieve your suffering.

Rosacea: Rosacea is a distressing condition involving a combination of symptoms including
facial flushing, thickening of the skin, spots and cysts and formation of red veins.
These symptoms can be effectively treated using laser and Intense Pulsed Light systems.

Holiday Sun Protection.17th May 2013

Summer holiday time is fast approaching again but don't forget that you must take
along your sun protection. We recommend that you use an SPF 50 with a UVA protection
rating of at least three stars. Remember a sun tan may look good for a couple of
weeks after you holiday but heavy sun exposure can do profound damage to you skin
and is the major cause of skin cancers!

NEW! - A Breakthrough Technique in Facial Contouring

17 January 2013

Beaufort Medical is now able to offer a breakthrough technique in the art of facial
re-contouring. As we age our faces loose volume from the cheek and the area under
the eye (tear trough) leading to a gaunt and drawn appearance. Traditional techniques
of treating this condition can take multiple treatments and can be painful or cause
extensive bruising. Our new Pix’L Canula Technique enables us to place volume restoring
products precisely where they are needed with minimum discomfort and bruising. The
techniques gives instant facial re-contouring restoring the youthful fresh appearance.

In the full flow of the holiday season please do not forget to protect yourself (and
the children) from the damaging effects of the sun. If you are "flying off" for a
well earned break or even spending some time catching up on the gardening the rules
should be the same. Firstly ensure that you stay in the shade between the hours of
11am and 3pm, not only because this is the hottest part of the day but also because
the suns rays are filtered by less atmosphere when it is high in the sky so more
of the damaging radiation reaches our skin. Secondly make sure you NEVER burn. Cover
up with a T shirt, broad brimmed hat and sun glasses (the backs of your eyes can
also be damaged by the sun). Apply sunscreen of SPF30 frequently throughout the day.
Finally be especially careful with the children. Their skin cancer risk when they
are in their 50s and 60s is mainly set by how well you look after their skin when
they are young!

Enjoy the summer!
